-Lisunov Li-2 “Kármán Tódor” HA-LIX 100% cropped D-Day is celebrating its anniversary today, 75 years after the 1944 landing in Normandy. The official name for the event was Operation Neptune and was the largest scale seaborne invasion in history. The effort from more than 200,000 heroic allied soldiers on June 6, 1944, unclasped Adolf Hitler’s hand from Europe. In celebration of their brave efforts today, the Imperial War Museum will release a fleet of aircraft which will take a route over England and towards the English Channel with a final descent on France. <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k8kkGIh_NXQ" rel="noreferrer nofollow">www.youtube.com/watch?v=k8kkGIh_NXQ</a> <a href="https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/9219317/dakotas-heroes-d-day-fly-again-75th-anniversary-celebrations/" rel="noreferrer nofollow">www.thesun.co.uk/news/9219317/dakotas-heroes-d-day-fly-ag...</a> Approximately 280 paratroopers, made up of 130 UK troops from 16 Air Assault Brigade and 150 from the French Army’s 11e Brigade Parachutiste, will carry out a commemorative parachute descent onto fields on the outskirts of Sannerville, Normandy. In the early hours of 6th June 1944, the same fields served as Drop Zone ‘K’ for the 8th (Midlands) Parachute Battalion, tasked with the destruction of bridges to restrict German freedom of manoeuvre. Following the military parachuting The Red Devils, the Army and Parachute Regiment freefall display team, will do a display, including a tandem jump with D-Day veterans Harry Read and Jock Hutton. On D-Day, Mr Read, now 95, was a 20-year-old wireless operator and Mr Hutton, now 94, was a 19-year-old in 13th (Lancashire) Parachute Battalion. <a href="https://www.daksovernormandy.com/aircraft/" rel="noreferrer nofollow">www.daksovernormandy.com/aircraft/</a> |
